Lavender Cinnamon Stick Broom: A Fall Tradition with a Floral Twist
Save
This is one broom you will want to show off rather than hide in the closet. Our Lavender Cinnamon Stick Broom is a decorative accent that pairs the warm, spicy scent of cinnamon with a touch of lavender. It is a classic Midwestern fall tradition, and it will not sweep a single crumb. That is not its job.
What a cinnamon broom is
Cinnamon brooms show up every fall in Midwestern farm markets and kitchens. They are decorative brooms scented with cinnamon, hung where people pass so the spicy fragrance greets them. Ours adds lavender to the mix, so the scent is warm and cozy with a floral note running through it.
Where to hang it
| Spot | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Front door or entry | The first thing guests notice when they come inside |
| Kitchen | Pairs with the season's baking and cider |
| Near the fireplace | Holiday charm on the mantel wall, at a safe distance from the heat |
| Hallway or mudroom | Natural airflow from foot traffic helps the scent travel |
Keeping the scent going
- Give it air. A spot where people walk by moves the fragrance through the room.
- Avoid direct heat. Keep it off the mantel itself and away from radiators, stoves and heat vents.
- Avoid moisture. Steamy bathrooms and damp porches are not a good fit.
- Store it well. Between seasons, wrap it loosely in paper and keep it in a cool, dry place.
Like any natural fragrance, the scent mellows over time. A gentle brush of the bristles with your hand helps wake it up.
Decorating ideas
Tie a plaid ribbon around the handle for fall, swap in red and green for the holidays, or tuck in a small bundle of dried lavender for an all-farm look. A broom hanging beside a door wreath makes a cheerful pair on a covered porch, as long as it stays dry.
A hostess favorite
A cinnamon broom is a charming hostess gift for Thanksgiving dinner or a holiday party, and a fun seasonal decor piece for a new homeowner. See more ideas on our gifts page.
